Chapter 503: Chapter 329: The Furious Ginseng, Changes in the Deep Mountains_2
Thus, Lu Qing led Hu Zezhi and his daughter to temporarily stay at the Wei Familyâs separate residence.
After settling them down, he then went over to the Half Mountain Small Courtyard.
He wanted to help the elder doctor clean up the house.
However, when he arrived at the Half Mountain Small Courtyard, he found that it was also very neat.
He didnât know if it was the villagersâ doing or if Wei Shanhai, who often came here to pick plum tea, had sent someone to clean up.
âAh Qing, come here.â
At this moment, the voice of the elder doctor came from behind the house.
âWhat is it, Master?â
Lu Qing walked to the back of the house, intending to inquire, but suddenly stopped in astonishment.
Beside the elder doctor, there was a vibrant small garden, enclosed by a fence, emanating a rich vitality.
It was the medicine field they had opened before.
âThis medicine fieldâŠâ
As Lu Qing approached, he saw that the various medicinal herbs in the field were growing vigorously, and he felt astonished.
In just a few months, these herbs had grown as if they had spent ten years maturing.
The medicinal power was ample, and they were now completely usable.
More importantly, he also felt that the Earthâs energy here was very rich.
It was as if the Earthâs energy from several miles around was continuously gathering here.
There was also an extremely vibrant Wood Vitality lurking below.
âThat thousand-year-old ginseng, it actually didnât escape?â
Lu Qing instantly recognized the source of the vitality, and was immediately surprised.
Because that was the very thousand-year-old ginseng with spiritual wisdom, which he had captured initially, and then the elder doctor had placed it in the medicine field to help manage and disperse the Earthâs energy.
Originally, when they left the village to go to Central State that day,
Lu Qing had thought that by the time they returned, this thousand-year-old ginseng would have long since escaped.
Unexpectedly, it was still in the medicine field.
And looking at the current situation, it was still diligently and wholeheartedly helping to manage and cultivate this plot of the field.
It seemed to sense the movement outside, and the originally dormant vitality suddenly showed some changes.
Quietly rising upward, soon, a few leaves slowly emerged.
Seeing this, Lu Qing couldnât help but laugh, âYou audacious thing, arenât you afraid of being captured again?â
This remark immediately made those few leaves swoosh back into the ground.
But very quickly, the thousand-year-old ginseng seemed to realize something was wrong.
Suddenly it came out from the ground again and approached the elder doctor, half of its plump body appearing, with several leaves on top, waving like human arms, excitedly gesturing something as if complaining.
âThis little thing seems to have gained more spiritual wisdom?â
Lu Qing was somewhat surprised; could it be influenced by the recovery of the spiritual energy?
âAll right, all right, I know I broke my promise, now Iâll make it up to you.â
The elder doctor repeatedly apologized and took out a Jade Bottle from his bosom, dropping a milky white Medicine Liquid onto it.
As the Medicine Liquid fell on its body, the thousand-year-old ginseng immediately stiffened, and then, with a slurp, it absorbed the Medicine Liquid.
The leaves on its head shook, seemingly enjoying the sensation very much.
Then, in the next moment, it disappeared, burrowing into the ground to absorb the Medicine Liquid.
It could no longer care about settling the matter of the elder doctorâs broken promise.
âMaster, youâve really invested a lot this time, giving it a whole drop of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid,â said Lu Qing with a laugh.
âSince it didnât leave, it has accepted this place, and as it has managed the medicine field so well, it deserves some compensation,â the elder doctor responded.
When the elder doctor first opened the medicine field, he had an agreement with this ginseng.
As long as it helped regulate the Earthâs energy daily, he would give it a drop of Medicine Liquid diluted from Earth Vein Spirit Liquid every three days.
Afterward, when they were to go to Central State, this agreement was not continued.
He thought that the thousand-year-old ginseng would leave, but unexpectedly, it stayed here all this time.
âSince itâs willing to stay, then itâs perfect; disciple, now that Iâve returned, I want to study the way of Arrays for some time.
Then, see if I can gather the Earthâs energy and Spiritual Energy through Arrays to open up a true Spiritual Medicine garden.â
Lu Qing spoke earnestly.
He had held this idea for a long time.
Now, as the world and spiritual energy were recovering, all things in this world were also entering a period of mysterious changes.
In this gradual transformation, some spiritual beasts and spiritual medicines from ancient legends might also appear one after another in the days to come.
But for Lu Qing, it was still somewhat too slow.
So he wanted to try, to see if he could, relying on what he had learned, cultivate a batch of Spiritual Medicine in advance and seize the initiative.
âThis is very good, now with the enormous changes in heaven and earth, epidemics might also undergo unpredictable transformations.
If we could cultivate Spiritual Medicine, when we encounter those intractable diseases in the future, we wouldnât be completely helpless.â
The elder doctor, upon hearing this, rejoiced greatly.
Being a doctor with medical benevolence, he was already worried about the current changes in heaven and earth.
Lu Qingâs idea was exactly what they needed to prepare in advance.
âAlso, Master, tomorrow I would like to go into the mountains to see the condition there.
Little Yan and the others, Iâll need you to take care of them temporarily.â
âAlright, go ahead without worries, and be safe.â
The elder doctor solemnly said.
He knew his discipleâs concerns.
Although their trip to Central State this time brought great gains and incredible opportunities,
it also planted quite a few seeds of disaster and offended many people.
Suspended Mountain goes without saying, it was already a mortal foe.
And then there was Holy Mountain, which always stood in the world with a name for justice.
But people have their selfish motives.
That Third Saint, having been defeated by Lu Qing in front of so many powerful beings,
nobody could guarantee he wouldnât bear any resentment.
Otherwise, the day they left, Holy Mountain would not have ordered the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master to invite Lu Qing up the mountain.
Besides that, there was also the mysterious Demon Cultivator who Lu Qing had severely injured and the possible remains of the Qi Family, et cetera.
These were all potential threats.
As they came back this time, they traveled by the Wind-controlling Chariot with a speed beyond the reach of ordinary people.
However, there was still a trace to follow.
For the time being, others might not know their whereabouts, but if someone was determined, it was hard to say whether they could locate Jiuli Village.
Thus, caution was paramount.
âI will be careful,â Lu Qing nodded.
The next day, after worshiping at his parentsâ graves with Little Yan, Lu Qing brought her and Little Li to the Half Mountain Small Courtyard, then he entered Ten Thousand Great Mountains alone.
Along the way, Lu Qing carefully sensed and examined the changes in the mountains.
Then, under dual examination by Divine Soul Sensing and Superpower, Lu Qing discovered that significant changes had indeed occurred in the mountains.
First were the plants.
The plants in the mountains were growing much more vigorously, especially the Wood Vitality, which had become very thick.
If a cultivator of Wood Element True Qi or Spiritual Power came to deep mountain for secluded cultivation, their cultivation could progress significantly faster.
Then there were the animals.
The changes in the creatures of the mountain were also significant, especially the poisonous insects and snakes which had become much more ferocious.
The toxicity contained within their bodies had greatly increased.
An ordinary person entering here, if bitten even once, would likely die immediately.
Even Postnatal Realm Martial Artists, if poisoned and unable to promptly expel the poison and receive treatment, probably wouldnât last long.
âLooks like, the defense work for the village needs to start early.â
Feeling the changes in the mountains, Lu Qingâs mood was somewhat heavy.
These poisonous insects and snakes in the deep mountains were naturally no threat to him.
But for the villagers, they were extremely dangerous.
If someone was accidentally bitten, it could be a big problem.
As he thought about this, Lu Qing unconsciously arrived at a familiar place.
âThe changes here arenât too significant.â
Looking at the dazzlingly beautiful, flower-filled mountain valley ahead, Lu Qing smiled.
This trip into the mountains, besides wanting to inspect the situation, his most important goal was to check whether there had been any changes at the Jade Cave.
It seems now that the changes werenât as significant as he had imagined.
As usual, after briefly paying homage in front of Li Weitianâs grave, Lu Qing crossed the waterfall and entered into the heart of the mountain.
